Answer:
Explanation:
Since the swimming pool is cylindrical, we would find its volume by applying the formula for determining the volume of a cylinder which is expressed as
Volume = πr²h
Where
r represents radius of the cylinder
h represents height
π = constant = 3.14
From the information given,
Diameter = 12 feet
Radius, r = diameter/2 = 12/2 = 6 feet
h = 4 feet
Volume = 3.14 × 6² × 4 = 452.16ft³
Since 1 cubic foot is approximately 7.48 gallons, the number of gallons of water that the swimming pool can contain is
452.16 × 7.48 = 3382.16 gallons
